“You can expect to see Wilson Reis and Bao Quach take each other on live on ShoXC Sept. 26 in the first-ever world title fight to appear on ShoXC,” Shaw said. “(It’ll) initiate our bantamweight championship.”

The event takes place at the Chumash Casino Resort in Santa Ynez, Calif.

The Reis vs. Quach title fight had been scheduled for the organization’s Sept. 20 event in New Mexico, but the organization recently canceled the show. Although EliteXC hasn’t made an official announcement of the cancellation, Shaw confirmed the event was scratched so the organization could focus on its upcoming CBS event in October.

“For EliteXC we just felt that we needed to clear the runway for a big landing on Oct. 4,” Shaw said.

Reis, a 23-year-old Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt, pushed his career mark to 5-0 with a unanimous-decision victory over Bryan Caraway at “EliteXC: Unfinished Business” in July. It was the Philadelphia-based fighter’s third consecutive win in EliteXC. Reis made his EliteXC debut as part of January’s ShoXC event in New Jersey, where he scored a second-round submission victory over Zach Makovsky.

Quach, meanwhile, is a veteran fighter who’s experienced a remarkable career turnaround. Although he began his professional career with a 6-8-1 record, Quach has since posted nine consecutive victories, including ShoXC victories over Bobby McMaster and UFC veteran Doug Evans.

With the crowning of a 140-pound champion, EliteXC’s only men’s weight class without a champion will be the light-heavyweight division, though a belt is expected to be awarded within the next year. EliteXC also expects to implement titles in two women’s divisions — 130-pound and 140-pound divisions — either this year or next.

UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey is probably the greatest female fighter on the planet, which is a tremendous feat. So why are we seemingly so obsessed with arguing about whether she could beat up men?
